Life has thrown a lot of lemons at ten-year old Lemonade Liberty Witt. After losing her mom and being moved to live with a grandfather she’s never even met, it’s impossible to find the bright side. Boy next door, Tobin Sky, invites her to be his Assistant at Bigfoot Detectives, Inc. and she reluctantly agrees. There’s nothing better to do in a town that truly believes in a woolly beast lurking in the woods. But their efforts to capture evidence of the cryptid’s existence quickly get out of hand when all clues point to something big.
